2012 in preview: Staff predictions

From my junior golf beat, I predict that a fully-healthy Gavin Hall will rise to the top of the Golfweek Junior Rankings for the first time. The lefty from New York was hampered by injuries last year, but broke through for his first big win at the Junior Players at TPC Sawgrass. From the professional beat, I'll make the same prediction I made last year – that Phil Mickelson will not win in 2012. I would have been correct last year had it not been for a nice weekend in Houston.
